5 Funky Looking Houses

Floating Castle (Ukraine)

This house in the Ukraine is supported by a single cantilever. It’s claimed to be an old bunker for the overload of mineral fertilizers.


Habitat 67 (Montreal, Canada)

Habitat 67 is a housing complex and landmark located on the Marc-Drouin Quay on the Saint Lawrence River at 2600, Pierre Dupuy Avenue in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Its design was created by architect Moshe Safdie based on his master’s thesis at McGill University and built as part of Expo 67.


Cube House (Rotterdam, Netherlands)

Kubuswoningen, or cube houses, are a set of innovative houses built in Rotterdam and Helmond in The Netherlands, designed by architect Piet Blom in 1984. The houses in Rotterdam are located on Overblaak Street, and beside the Blaak Subway Station. Blom tilted the cube of a conventional house 45 degrees, and rested it upon a hexagon-shaped pylon. There are 38 small cubes and two so called ‘super-cubes’, all attached to each other.

As residents are disturbed so often by curious passers-by, one owner decided to open a “show cube”, which is furnished as a normal house, and is making a living out of offering tours to visitors.


Mushroom House (Cincinnati, Ohio)

The Mushroom House (aka Tree House) is in the Hyde Park section of Cincinnati, OH. It was designed by architect Terry Brown, a professor of Architecture and Interior Design at the University of Cincinnati. The building was created with the assistance of university students.


Pod House (New Rochelle, New York)

This spaceship-looking house has walkways that let you travel from pod to pod.

The Pharmacist Joke


A young man goes into a pharmacy and asks the pharmacist: “Hello, could you give me condom. My girlfriend has invited me for dinner and I think she is expecting something from me!”

The pharmacist gives him the condom; and as the young man is going out, he returns and tells him: “Give me another condom because my girlfriend’s sister is very cute too. She always crosses her legs in a provocative manner when she sees me and I think she expects something from me too..” The pharmacist gives him a second condom; and as the boy is leaving he turns back and says:”After all, give me one more condom because my girlfriend’s mom is still pretty cute and when she sees me she always makes allusions… and since she invited me for dinner, I think she is expecting something from me!!

During dinner, the young man is sitting with his girlfriend on his left, the sister on his right and the mom facing him. When the dad gets there, the boy lowers his head and starts praying:

“Dear Lord, bless this dinner… thank you for all you give us…!!!” A minute later the boy is still praying: “Thank you Lord for your kindness…” Ten minutes go on and the boy is still praying, keeping his head down.

The others look at each other surprised and his girlfriend even more than the others. She gets close to the boy and tells him in his ear: “I didn’t know you were so religious!!!”

The boy replies:” I didn’t know your dad was a pharmacist!!!”
